The dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9, 1945 marked the beginning of a new era: the atomic age. Nuclear power has always been an extremely sensitive matter in Japan, and this is hardly surprising given that the Japanese and, subsequently, American government censored information regarding its destructive power. So, while "evil" energy was successfully consigned to oblivion until the end of the allied occupation in 1952, "good" energy was enthusiastically encouraged by the government one short year later in the wake of President Dwight D. Eisenhower's famous Atoms for Peace-speech. Needless to say that the discursive division of the atom led to a division in society: on the one hand, those who were still suffering from the consequences of the bomb and on the other, those who were now striving for a new, comfortable middle-class life. The contributions examine the various forms of articulation of nuclear power - and the various actors involved from the early post-war period to the present day. They attempt to work out that the peaceful and the destructive power of the atom are two sides of the same coin. The triple disaster at Fukushima in 2011 made this all too clear and ultimately exposed the national myth of nuclear safety that had lulled post-war Japanese society into a false sense of security. A thorough reexamination of Japan's nuclear fallacy is needed now more than ever.

I always ignore the buyer beware post but this is a buyer beware post!
I purchased this product based on the reviews I read. Please do not purchase. The cartridge is totally different from the brand version The part of the cartridge that should be fastened and locked into the pen is shaped in a circle , on the pen the Parr is rectangle . The original cartridge has a circular downward pattern to help lock the cartridge into the machine on the replacement cartridge there's no ridges it just slides down so it doesn't fit in no way shape form or fashion. I tried to alter the circular piece to make it fit by filing, burning and reshaping the plastic in an attempt to change the shape to a rectangle to fit it doesn't work the entire cartridge does not fit into the machine it's a waste of money for product that can't be returned or used. Buyer beware!
